Iron–sulfur-protein biogenesis in eukaryotes

open access: yesTrends in Biochemical Sciences, 2005
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters (ISCs) are versatile, ancient co-factors of proteins that are involved in electron transport, enzyme catalysis and regulation of gene expression. The synthesis of ISCs and their insertion into apoproteins involves the function of complex cellular machineries.

Mitochondrial disease associated with complex I (NADH-CoQ oxidoreductase) deficiency. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mitochondrial diseases due to a reduced capacity for oxidative phosphorylation were first identified more than 20 years ago, and their incidence is now recognized to be quite significant.

Structure Formation in Butterfly Scales: Interplay of Genetic Control, Mechanical Instabilities, and Dynamic Material Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Butterfly wing scales are intricate cuticular functional nanosctructures. This perspective suggests that spatially varying material properties, cytoskeletal constraints, and growth‐driven mechanical instabilities shape the resulting nanoscale architectures created from single cells.

Nitric oxide prevents Aft1 activation and metabolic remodeling in frataxin-deficient yeast

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2018
Yeast frataxin homolog (Yfh1) is the orthologue of human frataxin, a mitochondrial protein whose deficiency causes Friedreich Ataxia. Yfh1 deficiency activates Aft1, a transcription factor governing iron homeostasis in yeast cells.

Nanodiamond Quantum Sensors for Probing Free Radical Biology

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Free radicals play key roles in cellular signaling and disease but remain difficult to measure in living systems. Nanodiamonds (NDs) with nitrogen‐vacancy (NV) centers enable quantum sensing of local magnetic noise via T₁ relaxometry, providing nondestructive radical detection in living cells.

NMR as a Tool to Investigate the Processes of Mitochondrial and Cytosolic Iron-Sulfur Cluster Biosynthesis

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters, the ubiquitous protein cofactors found in all kingdoms of life, perform a myriad of functions including nitrogen fixation, ribosome assembly, DNA repair, mitochondrial respiration, and metabolite catabolism. The biogenesis of

HSCB, a co-chaperone in mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis, is a novel candidate gene for congenital sideroblastic anemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Congenital sideroblastic anemias (CSA) are inherited diseases resulting from defects in heme biosynthesis, mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) assembly, or mitochondrial translation.
